Numbers on shirts ... again!

They could have sorted the shirt issue out way before the season started. The new kit was agreed well in advance of the season. I suspect that a decision was made to stick with the design as they were keen to raise kit sales revenue and any delay would impact on their revenue streams. Someone, whoever signed the design off, should have been sacked. Well, they probably have been as so few employees still remain.

I really liked Real Sociedad's kit (v Man U) last night. I wouldn't be unhappy with that - smart, blue and white, striped and legible numbers. Happy days.

Surely its just a way of creating demand for Albion themed binoculars. If nothing else, Paul Barber is a marketing genius!!

Brilliant idea! Should have had that up and running for the away fans at Withdean.

I wear glasses to the game as my eyesight isn't brilliant for distance. The likes of Bruno/Buckley/KLL/Ulloa are easy enough to spot (although Bruno/El Abd can be challenging at a glance). But it certainly ain't that easy instantly distinguishing between the likes of Ward/Crofts/Andrews from the WSU. So yes, I relied on shirt numbers for SOME of the players to instantly recognise them. But the current numbers are invisible. Its a mild irritant from a stupid mistake by whatever DOLT thought this colour/design combo would somehow be a good idea.

He wouldn't know, as he boasts in his signature that he doesn't go to games.
